16 Starting up Connections in DMX mode Connect the DMX input of the device to the DMX output of a DMX controller or another DMX device. Connect the output of the first DMX device to the input of the second one, and so on to form a daisy chain. Always ensure that the output of the last DMX device in the daisy chain is terminated with a resistor (110 Ω, ¼ W). LED-PAR 16

17 Starting up Connections in master/slave mode When you configure a group of devices in master/slave mode, the first unit will control the other units for an automatic, sound-activated, synchronized show. This function is ideal when you want to start a show immediately. Connect the DMX output of the master device to the DMX input of the first slave device. Then connect the DMX output of the first slave device to the DMX input of the second slave device and so on. Outdoor Stage PAR 12 3W Tri 17

38 Troubleshooting 9 Troubleshooting NOTICE! Possible data transmission errors For error-free operation make use of dedicated DMX cables and do not use ordinary microphone cables. Never connect the DMX output to audio devices such as mixers or amplifiers. In the following we list a few common problems that may occur during operation. We give you some suggestions for easy troubleshooting: LED-PAR 38

39 Troubleshooting Symptom The unit does not work, no light. No response to the DMX controller. Remedy Check the mains connection and the fuse. 1. Check the DMX ports and cables for proper connection. 2. Check the address settings and the DMX polarity. 3. Try using another DMX controller. 4. Check to see if the DMX cables run near or alongside to high voltage cables that may cause damage or interference to DMX interface circuits. If the procedures recommended above do not succeed, please contact our Service Center. You can find the contact information at Outdoor Stage PAR 12 3W Tri 39

40 Cleaning 10 Cleaning Optical lenses Clean the exterior of accessible optical lenses periodically to optimise light output. The frequency of cleaning depends on the operating environment: wet, smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause more accumulation of dirt on the optics of the device. Clean with a soft cloth using normal glass cleaning products. Always dry the parts carefully. LED-PAR 40
